2. Performing the right surgery

As in every aspect of medicine, the key to success in hand surgery is to make an accurate diagnosis based on a complete history and physical examination of our patient. Once you have an exact diagnosis you will know exactly what to operate and most importantly when to perform that operation. We, as surgeons, have that rush to try to solve everything as soon as it is presented to us. We know we can solve things, but we also have to be very patient to know the perfect timing and when to do it in order for our surgeries to be successful and to achieve the best results possible.
